Transcript:
Poncho: You mean it's a pigeon "rite of manhood" to...to... Bob: Yes. Poncho: To "go" on your first freshly washed car. Bob: When the first shiny Model T Ford rolled off the lot in 1908, a pigeon was there. And we've been christening freshly polished car tops ever since. Poncho: Wow. I know the humans like to say that you guys do it on purpose, but I don't think they really believe it. Bob: We don't have a lot in this world, we pigeons.

Pigeons do have sh@t. If a pigeon sh@ts on your car is it really clean?

When a pigeon carps on your freshly washed car, it’s like a clean-car award. Be proud!

Yeah, when you gripe about a pigeon soiling your newly cleaned car, the next thing to fall on it is a dead body (Con Air).

They almost never carp on dirty cars. I got my big truck out of the body shop last week. They had it looking good. You guessed it, bird carp. Right above the grill on a white truck.

A Far Side panel from years ago was captioned “How Pigeons See The World”. It was an aerial view of a park and everything had bullseyes.
